Difficulty: MediumStandard and Custom Object Management

A Salesforce administrator at an educational publishing company configures a Master-Detail relationship where the standard Account object serves as the master and a new custom object named Course_Offering__c serves as the detail. Which TWO statements accurately describe the security and data management capabilities resulting from this setup? (Select 2)

  1. Roll-up summary fields can be created on the Account object to calculate aggregate counts and values from related Course_Offering__c records.Answer
  2. Deleting an Account record automatically deletes all associated Course_Offering__c child records in a cascade deletion.Answer
  3. C
    Roll-up summary fields can be created on the Course_Offering__c object to summarize values from parent objects connected solely through lookup relationships.
  4. D
    Creating a new record type on Course_Offering__c automatically assigns all picklist field values to that record type without requiring manual configuration.

Answer

The correct statements are that roll-up summary fields can be created on the Account object to aggregate data from related Course_Offering__c records, and deleting an Account record automatically deletes associated Course_Offering__c child records.
In Salesforce Core Administration, establishing a Master-Detail relationship enables two critical behaviors: first, native roll-up summary fields can be configured on the master object (Account) to aggregate data from child records; second, deleting a master record cascade-deletes all associated child records automatically.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze Master-Detail relationship data summary capabilities
Identify that Master objects in a Master-Detail relationship support roll-up summary fields (SUM, COUNT, MIN, MAX) on child records.
Roll-up summary fields are an exclusive feature of Master-Detail relationships and are placed on the master record.
2
Evaluate record deletion cascade behavior
Confirm that deleting the master Account record cascade-deletes all associated child Course_Offering__c records.
Child records in a Master-Detail relationship inherit access and existence entirely from the master record.
3
Review limitations and wrong options
Eliminate options proposing roll-up summaries over lookup relationships or automatic picklist configuration on record types.
Lookup relationships do not support native roll-up summary fields, and new record types require explicit picklist value configuration.
